Steve: That was a an error on my point. I meant to say that one position on the equation of freedom and following DQ (rather than free will) is that this capacity to follow DQ translates in to the MOQ as free will.

Steve: I guess that is one way to interpret his statement. How do we make free choices in cases where we are not following DQ? What distinction are you implicitly drawing between _free_ choices and other choices which are presumably not free?
